Question, is this 2 layer SAK a Spartan or a Standard?

In my opinion, it's not a Spartan neither Standart. Spartan it's a relatively modern name for this knife, when it was produced, it has only numeric index, but no own name.

Thank you LeaF, I guess I'll put it in my spreadsheet as a 234.

Agreed LeaFy

This model is late 50s -->  New can opener / old awl

Names only came in in the mid 70s

If it was later it would be a Standard   -->  No kr, tp or tw

Model numbers of Elinox knives are actually a little different than those of corresponding regular line knives: If this knife is 91mm, it's a 1234. If it's 84mm, it's a 1234k.

Thank you, I didn't know that about the Elinox line.  I believe it to be 91mm.

Thanks guys ...  :hatsoff:

In my opinion this topic deserves to be a live as much as it can be and I know for sure that you have great vintage ones as well, so let's see them...   :tu:

You're correct, no names for this year... N° 235kaU aka Climber small (someone rather prefer to call it like this).

Nothing like finding out my possibly 80 year old Spartan was actually a Pradel,  that's French. Still cool, but not like the vintage  SAK I thought I carried 60+ years ago...

I didn't realize this club existed. I'm pretty sure this pioneer qualifies. The Elinox stamp and the +PAT can opener most likely date it to the 60's.
